I enjoy every song on this album. Even the interludes. But there's not much to keep me listening to this album in the future. On Brave Mountatins, Massachusetts, and California all have catchy choruses. Stand Amidst the Roar boasts probably the best riff in all of Silversteins catalog. A cohesive record: some heavy, some slow songs. Added with some interesting interludes and tracks like In a Place of Solace and Departures, definitely change up the dynamics of the record. r

Having never heard Silverstein before, this was a treat. The band's more adept with post-hardcore/metalcore than pop-punk numbers (the vocals and guitar are far more interesting on the former, which is important since the bass is inaudible and the drumming is nondescript), but overall it features anguish-ridden but compelling lyricism and creative metal riffs. TIHTWS is somewhat muddled in terms of musical direction, but far from bad.
